Zion Godsend Task Force News

The Zion Godsend Task Force met April 10 to continue to review options for both investment and distribution of the proceeds of the Godsend. Initial thinking is that the proceeds are best used if the inflation adjusted initial proceeds are maintained in perpetuity.

Feedback received during Lenten Listening sessions was appreciated and beneficial in addressing a strategy which best reflects the mission of POP.​Following creation of a framework for possible recommendations of both investment strategies and distribution approaches, a second round of focus groups will be conducted to obtain further congregation feed-back.Initially, it was anticipated that those sessions could be completed and recommendations made to the congregation during the June Congregational meeting. That may still be possible, but since this is such an importation decision for the congregation, June may be impossible and an additional congregation meeting necessary.

Task Force Mission

Our role is to do the research and community consensus gathering around the best, long-term, sustainable use of fund from the sale of the, former Zion property.

We are a group of PoP members with various connections to the ministries of this church, various work backgrounds. But no leadership within any groups, so as to avoid any potential impressions of either favoritism or conflicts of interest.
